Chapter 602: We Count Our Words

Tang Fei knew about Grudy's arrival, but he didn't know the purpose of his coming.

As early as two days ago, Jiuzhou Industrial Group received a fax from Grudy, in which Grudy said that he would come to visit Tang Fei, and even their flight number was written on this fax.

What was the purpose of his coming?

The fax didn't say it explicitly, it just said that he came to visit and wanted to sit down with Tang Fei and talk to him personally. Tang Fei guessed that it might have something to do with the London Underground project.

London has officially issued an announcement, officially announcing the cancellation of the tender, will order subway locomotives directly from the designated subway locomotive manufacturers, the industry is speculating, it should be from Jiuzhou Metro Company to purchase subway locomotives.

Grudy must have thought the same way, London ordered the subway locomotive directly from the Jiuzhou Metro Company, and he was full of worries, and he took the initiative to come to the door very anxiously.

This time it's for the London Underground project.

But he can't say the specific purpose, so he can only talk about it in detail when he sits with Tang Fei. Knowing that Grudy and others would come, Jiuzhou Industrial Group was also polite, and today specially arranged for people and cars to meet them at the airport, and now Grudy and his party of five people are arranged in the five-star hotel of the International Financial Building.

Wang Hailong came over to report to Tang Fei.

Tang Fei nodded lightly, "Hailong, reply to Grudy and them, at two o'clock in the afternoon, I will meet them in the No. 1 reception room and sit down with them to talk." ”

"Okay, boss. Wang Hailong replied and asked, "What are they coming here for?"

Tang Fei thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's for the London Underground project, I guess Grudy is a little unable to sit still." ”

"Oh. Wang Hailong looked at Tang Fei with a little puzzlement.

He also guessed in his heart that the purpose of Grudy and the others coming over was for the London Underground project, but why Grudy couldn't sit still, Wang Hailong couldn't figure it out for the time being.

Tang Fei analyzed: "Hailong, at the beginning, Ximen Vehicle Group and we cooperated to participate in the bidding for the London Subway project, and our two companies as a whole, now the bidding has been cancelled, and London will order subway locomotives directly from Jiuzhou Metro Company." ”

Seeing Tang Fei say this, Wang Hailong seemed to understand a little.

Tang Fei continued: "Since London directly orders subway locomotives from Jiuzhou Metro Company and no longer takes the form of bidding, the cooperation between Jiuzhou Metro Company and Siemens Vehicle Group will naturally be nullified. ”

That's just as well.

If no one takes the form of bidding, then Jiuzhou Metro and Siemens Rolling Stock Group no longer need to participate in the bidding of the London Underground project as a whole, and naturally there is no need to cooperate.

Wang Hailong understood thoroughly.

He laughed and said loudly: "Boss, Grudy really can't sit still with this, we can completely abandon them and eat the London Underground project in its entirety." ”

Tang Fei also laughed.

Wang Hailong asked, "Boss, since you have already guessed the purpose of Grudy and the others coming to visit, why do you still want to see them?"

Tang Fei fell into deep thought, and did not answer Wang Hailong's words for the time being. Tang Fei has his own plans and some plans, since Grudy took the initiative to come to the door, let's talk about it openly.

"Sea Dragon, when will the old horse arrive. ”

This time, there will be a detailed discussion around the London Underground project, and Ma Jianwei will definitely come over. Tang Fei also knew that Ma Jianwei was very busy, so he didn't ask him to come over in advance yesterday, just come over before two o'clock this afternoon.

Wang Hailong said: "Mr. Ma arrived at Shenhai International Airport at about 11 o'clock in the morning. ”

Tang Fei waved his hand and said, "In that case, let's have a meal together at noon." ”

There are some things that Tang Fei is going to talk about with everyone, so let's sit together at noon and talk about these things. As for Grudy and the others, for the time being, there is no need for Tang Fei to set up a banquet for them to clean up the dust.

Among the hotels in the Deep Sea International Financial Building.

Grudy and they have moved into this super five-star hotel, the environment is first-class, warm and comfortable. But even after staying in this good hotel, Grudy's eyebrows still vaguely appeared worried.

In the past few days, he has used a lot of resources through this channel, and after a lot of effort, he finally basically understood that London really likes the subway locomotive of Jiuzhou Metro Company.

This makes Grudy very anxious!

At the beginning, we negotiated cooperation with Jiuzhou Metro Company, which was under the premise of bidding for the London Underground project, and the two units cooperated and participated in the bidding as a whole.

That premise no longer exists.

The London side has issued an announcement making it clear that the tender will be cancelled and the method of direct procurement will be replaced by direct procurement. In this case, the terms of cooperation that the two sides have negotiated before have become a piece of waste paper.

The premise of cooperation does not exist, and the cooperation can naturally be invalidated, and there is no breach of contract by Jiuzhou Metro Company.

Grudy was worried that the cooperation between the two parties would be invalid, and Jiuzhou Metro bypassed them and directly ate the order for this London Underground project.

That's a huge deal worth more than £2 billion.

In his room, Grudy looked anxious and walked up and down with his hands behind his back until there was a knock at the door.

His assistant gently pushed the door in, "Your Excellency President, Jiuzhou Industrial Group has clearly replied to us, at two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone sat down in the No. 1 reception room of the headquarters of Jiuzhou Industrial Group for a detailed discussion. ”

Hearing this, Grudy was a little relieved.

He thought in his heart, Tang Fei finally agreed to sit down with him and talk in detail, it seems that things are not particularly bad, maybe there is a glimmer of hope.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Both parties showed up in Room 1 on time and sat down to discuss the London Underground project in detail.

To be precise, Grudy and the others came earlier, and Tang Fei, Wang Hailong, and Ma Jianwei basically came on time. The two sides sat down and exchanged polite pleasantries.

After greeting and gradually entering the topic, Grudy took the initiative to say: "President Tang, although London announced that it will no longer take the form of bidding, and the premise of our cooperation no longer exists, we still very much hope to continue to carry out in-depth cooperation with your company." ”

Tang Fei smiled.

Grudy continued: "As the largest and strongest metro locomotive manufacturer in Europe, we have a strong foundation and influence in the European market.......

As always, he vigorously promoted their company, especially in terms of influence in the European market, etc., in order to lobby Tang Fei and continue to cooperate between the two companies.

After some vigorous lobbying, Grudy looked at Tang Fei with a little apprehension.

Tang Fei smiled again and pointed out: "Mr. Grudy, we will successfully win the London Underground project this time, Jiuzhou Metro Company will establish its influence in the European market, and will also win subway orders from other European cities in the future." ”

Hearing this, Grudy lowered his head, Tang Fei was not wrong at all, and he also talked about Grudy's weakness at once, the influence that Siemens Vehicle Group has always relied on has gradually ceased to have an advantage.

With the London Subway project being won, Jiuzhou Metro's metro locomotive products will enter the European market, which will gradually win the reputation and let Europeans know more about Jiuzhou Metro, which is very beneficial to win subway orders from other European cities in the future.

This is a business negotiation between the parties.

Tang Fei will definitely not be soft, he must fight for the interests he should fight for himself, ask for the price all over the sky, and sit on the ground to pay back, this is the truth.

Seeing that the other party lowered his head slightly, Tang Fei knew that he had completely taken the initiative and advantage in this business negotiation, and he didn't want to suppress Grudy too much, after all, deep down, Tang Fei still hoped that Jiuzhou Metro Company and Siemens would carry out in-depth cooperation.

For example, on the London Underground project.

The London Subway needs more than 200 subway locomotives, and the production and manufacturing task of Jiuzhou Metro Company is very large, and it is almost impossible to produce and manufacture it completely by Jiuzhou Metro Company, and it needs to be produced and manufactured by others, such as Siemens Vehicle Group.

They are one of the old subway manufacturers, with a large production scale, strong strength, and a good technical foundation, which is what Tang Fei values very much.

Seeing that he completely took the initiative, Tang Fei smiled, his tone changed sharply, and his tone was much more relaxed, "Of course, I think it is completely okay for us to cooperate on the London Underground project." ”

What the!

Grudy thought that he had misheard, just now he thought that Tang Fei no longer wanted to cooperate with him, where did he think that things could turn around like this.

"President Tang, I heard you right, it's true!"

He looked at Tang Fei with a look of surprise on his face, waiting for Tang Fei's answer.

Tang Fei smiled happily, and also gave Grudy a mouthful of reassurance, and said loudly: "Of course, of course this is true, our words count." ”

"Last time we talked about strategic cooperation, although the London Underground project is no longer in the form of bidding, the premise of cooperation between us no longer exists, but I think the strategic cooperation between our two units can continue, such as in this London Underground project, we can still continue to cooperate. ”

It's true, and I heard it right.

Grudy was a little excited all of a sudden, so excited that he almost couldn't control his feet, what he was most worried about was that Tang Fei bypassed them and directly won the entire London Underground project.

Now it seems that I completely underestimate others, people are not that kind of people at all, people are still very trustworthy, or willing to cooperate with Siemens Vehicle Group.

As for how to cooperate exactly?

Grudy wants to have an in-depth talk with Tang Fei now, and completely negotiate many details of the cooperation, and it is best to sign the cooperation agreement today.

He looked at Tang Fei with hope.

Today's three watches, the second one is sent!
